Hi. I'm try to use guestfish inside golang (extract some files

image and create squashfs from root).
Now i can't understand how can i work with
mount-local/mount-local-run. Where i can specify what partition i'm
export to local? Does i need firstly mount /dev/sda1 to / for example
and after that run
mount-local /tmp/xxx ?
Yes, you need at least something mounted to / (so /dev/sda1 in your
example) before calling mount-local. mount-local needs a root filesystem
mounted and it will always fail without it (in libguestfs 1.26 the error
message is clear in such cases).
Second - i'm work with guestfish via writing to stdin and
getting
result from stdout. In case of mount-local-run does i need fully fork
new binary or i can only dup stdin descriptor and work with it?
I'm afraid I don't understand what you mean here -- can you please
provide an actual case of what you want to do?
